Guides to Paving in the backyard?

Question

Does anyone have any links to paving for the backyard. I need to find one...

Answer 1

I don't do links, but certainly more detail would help us. Depending on it's purpose, and your notion about material and budget, you can do poured concrete or blacktop, river rock, or molded pavers.

You'd might also have to pull permits, and know codes for percentage of drainage on your lot.

Concrete should be framed, wire mesh or rebar reinforced, Blacktop should be installed over crushed limerock or similar, much like Highway road crews run road paving construction. Gravel can be dumped and spread, molded pavers should be set level to whatever degree is needed on sand or crushed stone.
